Tribes 2, the sequel to one of the most successful team-based shooters of all time was released to
some heavy criticism by the gaming public. While some loved it, many others hated it. Whether old school
Tribes fanatic or just casual gamer, the release of Tribes 2 did not go as smoothly as expected.

If you're reading this, there's a good chance you own Tribes 2. If you do, you know the problems
that riddled the game. Crashes, bad performance, inability to work with 3DFX cards, and many other things
made even a quick skirmish a painful experience. Fortunately, the many, many patches released fixed a lot
of the bugs, but things still weren't a-ok in the world of Tribes 2.

Thankfully, this is Tweak3D, and tweaking's what we do best! So why are you still hanging around
at this introduction? You can't read that fast eh? Well, hurry up; we're going to make your Tribes 2 more
enjoyable! That's what you want isn't it? Well then, let's go!

Basics

Nice.

Ugly.

Before you get started, I suggest you read our many tweak guides to get your system up to speed,
because there's no point in tweaking a game on an un-tweaked system. Also, regular driver updates are
very important. If you haven't updated your video, sound, etc. drivers, there's a good chance the new
releases will speed your system up considerably, and fix lots of problems, including some you may be having in this particular
game. Go update!

Speaking of patches, Tribes 2 has seen its fair share. Don't worry about searching around for
updates though, all you need to do is run the Tribes 2 Multiplayer version and it will automatically search,
find the best mirror, download and install it for you. Pretty simple (good idea Dynamix!). If you're on a
modem or just don't feel like running the auto update feature, you can get the patches at Sierra's website.

Dynamix's minimum requirements for Tribes 2 are as follows: (Taken from the game box)

Keep in mind, those are the minimum requirements for the game, which basically means that you
can play the game, but I guarantee it won't be very enjoyable. I personally recommend the following to
play the game at a decent resolution and with enjoyable graphical quality:

If you've got a system with those type of specs, it'll be much more enjoyable than if you had the
minimum recommendations. That's not to say that if you don't meet my requirements, you can't play; that's
what tweaking is all about!
